Well, he did lock up his leg, but think about it. How do you react when someone kicks you between the legs? I don't know about you, but even as a kid, I clamp my legs together.

I think you mean ASA completely contradicts OBR. ASA is based off of baseball and OBR and made changes they thought best suited softball.

The rule may be OBS, but the coaches teach them it is INT.

I find it easier to remember that in baseball, OBS is a form of INT.

Maybe, maybe not. Softball more resembles rounders than baseball and that is where both games originated.

From Wiki, for what it's worth:
The first version of softball was invented in Chicago, Illinois, on Thanksgiving Day, 1887 by George Hancock and Bakir Dzananovic as a winter version of baseball. It was intended to be a way for baseball players to keep in practice during the winter. At the time, the sport was called "Indoor Baseball."

Hancock, a reporter, was noted to have instituted rules for his game. Obviously there is a similarity to baseball, which at that time was still in it's infancy, but no differently than Gaelic or Australian Rules football is to soccer though they are different games.
